Patent

CA 2183586

In order to optimise the utilisation of resources (e.g. technicians) in performing a number of jobs, each job is assigned a cost time- dependant function and each resource is assessed for the time at which it will be available. For each combination of jobs with resources an actual cost can be determined. The combinations giving the lowest overall cost is then determined. Additional features are disclosed to ensure incompatible job/resource combinations are not allocated, and to reduce the complexity of the calculation by prioritising the jobs and resources.

Pour optimiser l'utilisation de ressources (en techniciens par exemple) lors de l'exécution d'un certain nombre de tâches, chacune de celles-ci se voit affecter un coût en fonction d'un horaire et on évalue chaque ressource selon l'horaire auquel elle sera disponible. On peut ainsi déterminer un coût réel pour chaque combinaison tâche-ressources, ainsi que la combinaison donnant le plus faible coût global. On décrit d'autres caractéristiques permettant de veiller à exclure des combinaisons tâches-ressources incompatibles et de réduire la complexité des calculs en affectant un ordre de priorité aux tâches et aux ressources.
